Admission onto the Little League International Complex is FREE and there is no cost for LLBWS tickets. Prior to Championship Weekend (August 27-28), stadium seating in both stadiums is available on a first-come, first-served basis outside of Section 1. On Championship weekend, tickets are required for access into the stadium for all Championship games and are typically not available to the public as they are provided to league volunteers and special guests. If tickets become available, they will be distributed from Will Call (located on the third-base side behind home plate of Lamade Stadium) on a first come, first-served basis. (Tickets for stadium seating for the Consolation Game currently scheduled for 10 a.m. on Sunday, August 28, are currently not required. Subject to change.) As always, no ticket is required for the famous “hill” or terrace overlooking the outfield fence of Howard J. Lamade Stadium, where seating is almost always available.
